Mango boosts AI offer with new Mango Stylist personalisation tool
The 'pioneering conversational tool' recommends products 'according to the user's tastes, provides styling inspiration, and shows the latest fashion trends,' we're told. It's available for the Woman line only at present, in nine markets, in Europe (Spain, Portugal, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Austria, Turkey) and the US.
Mango Stylist uses 'innovative algorithms to understand the context and personal tastes of each user, offering them product recommendations tailored to their preferences. It also gives them the opportunity to explore the latest trends and discover Mango product combinations and complete looks through chat in its e-commerce and the brand's Instagram account'.
The company said that the development of this tool is part of its 'Strategic Plan 2024-2026 which, through the Earn pillar, aims to create value through technological development, data management and artificial intelligence, and operational excellence'.
This tech helps it focus on 'hybrid experiences that combine traditional browsing with natural conversations supported by artificial intelligence. Customers can interact with fashion in a new and natural way, making every purchase an inspiring experience'.
And the tool also integrates with the after-sales virtual assistant Iris — already active in several markets — to 'consolidate the vision of a single conversational point of contact for customers. This makes it possible to resolve queries both before and after purchase, from the search for inspiration to querying the status of an order'.
Overall since 2018, the Spanish giant has developed more than 15 machine-learning platforms (MLE) that apply AI at different points in its value chain, such as pricing, design and customer service, among other areas.
Development of this particular tech has been possible thanks to the collaboration of different multi-disciplinary teams at the business, including IT, Data, Digital Product, Styling, Design, Visual Merchandising and Customer Service.
Mango said the launch reinforces its position as 'one of the first companies in the sector to integrate a conversational assistant based on generative AI that combines stylistic advice with customer service, and marks a new step towards a more personalised and efficient shopping experience'.

After 20 years, Nicolas Topiol leaves Christian Lacroix; STL takes over
Nicolas Topiol is stepping down as CEO of Christian Lacroix after nearly 20 years of leadership. He confirmed his departure in a LinkedIn post, as first reported by WWD. The transition marks the completion of a planned handover to Sociedad Textil Lonia (STL), the Galician company behind CH Carolina Herrera and Purificación García. STL, in which Puig holds a 25% stake, became Christian Lacroix's majority shareholder in January 2025. 'When I took over Christian Lacroix in 2005, many already saw it as a relic,' Nicolas Topiol wrote in his LinkedIn farewell. 'But we brought it back to relevance—honoring its heritage while shaping its future.' He highlighted the brand's expansion into licensing, lifestyle categories, and retail, all without compromising its core identity. Topiol said he departs 'with pride,' describing Christian Lacroix as 'strong, resilient, profitable, desirable, and protected.' He emphasized that the brand had remained 'unshakable' despite economic downturns, changes in ownership, and shifting business strategies. Moving forward, Topiol will focus on his role as president of Bechert Corporation, a private consulting firm specializing in mergers and acquisitions. Over nearly 20 years, he helped steer Christian Lacroix through dramatic evolution. 'We weathered crises, rebuilt the foundation, restructured operations, and led a successful handover,' he said, reflecting on his tenure. Christian Lacroix was founded in 1987 by its namesake designer in partnership with LVMH, while Lacroix was still creative director at Jean Patou. The brand quickly gained fame for its bold, baroque aesthetic—richly influenced by Lacroix's hometown of Arles, with Spanish flourishes, vivid colors, and theatrical silhouettes. In 2005, LVMH sold the label to U.S.-based travel retail group Falic. The 2009 financial crisis severely impacted the business, pushing it into receivership. Though the brand avoided liquidation, it shuttered its couture and ready-to-wear operations and pivoted to a licensing-based model. That same year, Christian Lacroix exited the house to pursue theatrical costume design for opera and stage.
